This role is perfect for aspiring journalists, creative writers, and digital publishing enthusiasts looking to sharpen their skills in a supportive, remote work environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Thrives in a fast-paced environment and can meet strict deadlines.
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills via Slack and email.
  • Able to work collaboratively and take constructive feedback.
  • Passionate about digital publishing and online media.

Requirements:

  • Access to a reliable computer and internet connection.
  • Availability to work a set schedule (20 hours/week) during weekdays and business hours.
  • Ability to communicate in real-time during shifts via Slack, email, and calls.

What You’ll Gain:

  • Real-world experience in digital publishing and journalism.
  • A robust portfolio with bylined articles.
  • Training and real-world practice in SEO, CMS, and other digital tools.
  • One-on-one mentorship from experienced editors.
  • Networking opportunities with YourTango’s editorial and cross-functional teams.

Eligibility & Compensation:

  • Must reside in the continental U.S. during the internship.
  • Receive a $1,500 stipend upon completion of the 4-month program.
  • Eligible for college credit.
  • This internship adheres to the Fair Labor Standards Act and the standards set by the U.S. Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division.
